FLAMING INFERNO BURNING FIRE FLAME LIGHT Flame enhanced VERSION III WALL MOUNT DESIGN SEE THE DUNGEON VIDEO CLIP BELOW ! The wall mount and bracket are all metal, so it's ruggedly constructed for permanent or semi-permanent installation We'll bet any magic performer in the world would put his stamp of approval on this light effect. For not only is it very bright, but it will instantly light up surrounding walls with deep orange/yellow flickering light, just like a campfire. One unusual secondary effect reported by many users (and this is of course completely psychological) is that the room (and they themselves by extension ) actually feels warmer. We showed it to 3 friends the first night we acquired a sample (I was lucky to be the first seller to have these on ebayland many years ago), and you should've seen their jaws drop. I'll never forget that. Considerably less memorable, however, is the first time I saw this thing, and was I ever fooled (oh yeah...big time)..... I watched in abject horror as a little girl put her hands in the 'flames'. Thinking instinctively she'd be quickly incinerated I .... (yep, you guessed it) .... bravely , bravely, ran over at high speed to 'save' her. What a hero I was back then, at least in fanciful theory (my altruism didn't even warrant applause in the end). Will I ever live that one down? Probably not this year, maybe not next either. At least my relatives and paramedic friends never found out. And most importantly, it didn't make the local paper. Standard 110 volts AC plug-in operation Can be hard wired into a light switch. Mounting hardware (screws and expander sleeves) included. YOUTUBE Video Clip WALL MOUNT VERSION All 3 designs (Wall Mount, Tabletop, and Hanging) use the same 'bowl', so the net visual effect is basically the same on all **** Note this was an older version used at the show years ago, the 2014 updated version has a somewhat different mounting bracket DESIGN SPECS : Wall to edge of bowl: 2.5 inches Bowl Diameter: 7.5 inches Wall Plate: 7.5 X 4.5 inches Weight with cord: 1 LB 6 OZ AC cord length: 6 ft Power consumption is less than 40 watts. Can be hard-wired if desired, though you'll want an electrician to do it safely. Heavy duty, and great for a bar, or for interior designers in need of an unusual effect. Comes with mounting hardware: 2 mounting screws and expander sleeves. Originally, this Version III was hard to come by in the U.S., and in retrospect I was very, very lucky to have gotten any at all. At night, outside, count on a visibility of ONE TO TWO CITY BLOCKS (my unscientific guestimate, haven't actually measured it). Furthermore, realize that the light assembly is so intense, you do not need total darkness to get the effect (although darkness does indeed provide a more dramatic setting; after all, this is what fire does for a living.....it illuminates stuff). THE HEART OF THE MATTER : Closeup of tinted lens/ quartz halogen light assembly, one of two. These are easily obtainable 2 pin 15 watt (12 volt). This is one brilliant lighting trick, and here's the secret: Two high-intensity quartz halogen tinted bulbs are used, an imbedded high speed fan, and specially arranged silk fabric to create the illusion of fire. A forceful column of rushing air suspends the fabric in midair (and collapses when turned off). With precise components positioned just right (bulbs are permanently angled 45 degrees), the effect is complete. PHOTO BELOW Angled view of part of the main assembly : Silk 'flames' are attached with velcro. Open grille vents permit swift upward airflow. You can't tell it's an illusion unless you're right on top of it, and even then it's still quite spectacular. Best viewing distance is 5 feet or more (even several hundred feet is feasible). I can easily (can't anyone ?!) see this bringing life to any indoor party, a nightime poolside event, backyard patio barbecue or even a Rave. Halloween will never be the same (what a no-brainer this is); just imagine the most unbelievable haunted house ever seen on planet earth (or pick your planet). Imagine a pair of these on either side of a walkway, conjuring up images of ancient Rome or Greece (visually stunning !). And talk about throwing an exotic dinner party! Or a birthday party to never forget. On a much more adventurous note, a couple let me know that it's a quantum leap above the usual 'lovemaking by candlelight'. All right then. Another resourceful customer described how she used these in her Polynesian Tiki bar, a most fiery idea. A key element to consider in using these is.... THE SHADOW EFFECT I once utilized 3 of these during a summer weekend backyard outdoor party behind a 3-story house. The effect was awesome in every way. Due to the careful placement, giant shadows were cast over the stairs and framework of the building. Needless to say, it was the perfect background setting for this event. So keep in mind it's not just the flame effect in itself that will make your guests sit up and take notice, but the undulating shadows being thrown against surrounding objects as well. HERE'S SOMETHING FUN.... A BUYER MODIFIED A WALL MOUNT FOR HALLOWEEN (prior year's mount design) Of course it also makes for a stunning household decoration, or any setting you can think of that would be enhanced by the warmth of a live fire effect (restaurant/bar perhaps, or a store window display). One buyer stuck a Flame Light in his office equipment store window and stopped not only sidewalk pedestrian traffic but passing cars as well (he was laughing as he told me this). Trade shows are a good place to have one for attracting long-distance attention to your booth (has already been used in car and home shows). I can also foresee nervous neighbors getting ready to call the fire department when they glimpse it in your window. Brand new, never used (except that I test every one before they go out), have fun if you end up acquiring one! You'll be getting the upgraded GENERATION (version) III model which uses (2) 15 Watt high-intensity Quartz Halogen bulbs. These are the very latest units with a number of small improvements (but which together make for a much better performing device) including a grille which more effectively directs air flow......consequently the flame looks even more realistic. The Halogen bulbs are easily replaceable by the way. We've tested about 4 competing versions of this model, and they all fall short in terms of both realism and performance. Some units use silk cloth that is off-color. This results in a flame that looks somewhat unrealistic. Another one we tested used filters that were just not quite right in terms of color rendition.....resulting in an artificial look. If you need further convincing (a concept we understand quite well....we're the most sceptical buyers on earth), here's a link with a hodgepodge of raving comments from past buyers, plus a bunch of new ideas for using Flame Lights that have floated in recently (special thanx to everyone who contributed) such as fireplace displays, exhibits etc..... entertaining, and a must read: FLAME LIGHT TESTIMONIALS, BUYER COMMENTS USES, TIPS, TRICKS : CLICK HERE (opens in separate page, so you won't lose your place) Click on COMPARISON CHART below to check all the flame light designs. SPARE QUARTZ HALOGEN BULBS FOR YOUR FLAME LIGHT : These use easy-to-replace Quartz Halogen Bulbs, and yep, they include the orange filter. It's often a good thing to have spares on hand, especially if your Flame Light is being used for a party, stage play, or other major event. Each flamer takes 2 bulbs. Click on bulb picture at left for the direct store link if you'd like to add these to your order (about half the typical office supply store price). Count on ...... SUPERSONIC, and, on good days, LIGHTSPEED shipping Items usually fly out of here straightaway, and with great fanfare (fireworks, marching band, dancing girls, that kind of thing), so your friendly mailman should be ringing your doorbell soon after. Buyer Quote : "Tell the truth-it was in the mail BEFORE I ordered, right ?" Or... "Seller employs delivery methods years ahead of our time" Plus... "Dude, the quickness of your response borders on scary, but I certainly appreciate it." And this, just in: "Can't believe this. Immediately after I hit the 'pay now' button,my doorbell rang, The package was at the door. Go figure."
